    The first computer I used was a windows 98. I can't remember what kind of computer though because I was like 7 years old

    You can also simply boot off a floppy disk with DOS6.0 installed on it, as long as your autoexec.bat and config.sys are configured properly.

    what's the advantage of that over a Pentium 1 and windows 95 or 98?

    Update.
    After 82 days of waiting patiently I have finally been notified it has arrived in New Jersey.
    Now I just have to worry about the greasy Italians mishandling my precious delivery.
    Also, I should probably buy that damn keyboard soon so I can use it.

    Many older dos games (286/386 era) will run too fast on a Pentium.

    It's funny how 486 computers are pretty hard to come by these days, the mobos have been destroyed by the varta batteries on many and then many were just recycled/dumped.

    10yrs ago you could pick em up for $1...now you gotta pay coin to get a functional one. Like anything if you want the real experience dosbox isn't going to cut it. People like the real hardware.
